Three-Rail Innovations' "Train Block Controller" provides reliable multi-train operation on a single track mainline.
The Train Block Controller implements a block control system for your three-rail train layout. Multiple trains run automatically on your "mainline" track. You operate the trains as the dispatcher of many trains, rather than an engineer of one train.
Your train layout becomes more exciting! More trains can be run on the same track. Your trains present a captivating visual experience by starting and stopping, changing speeds, and taking different routes through track switches, all without a need for close attention.
Your layout also becomes safer for your trains; an operator distraction won't cause a crash. Younger operators can't make a train crash.
Three-Rail Innovations' Train Block Controller IS ALL YOU NEED to build an automated three-rail train layout. One Train Block Controller will control two track blocks, one track block and a train power change, one crossover, one track switch, or will automatically operate any track switch.
The Train Block Controller WILL WORK WITH ANY TRACK SYSTEM. All that is needed is to have one outside-rail insulated from the other outside-rail and to isolate sections of outside-rails and center-rails to form track blocks.
The Train Block Controller can AUTOMATE ANY SIZE TRAIN LAYOUT. Anything from a long length of track that holds a couple of trains, a small layout running two or three trains, to an extensive layout running a dozen trains on the same mainline track. The "city" area of a layout can run many trolleys, rather than just one.

| About Train Block Control |
An automated layout starts with the track being divided into "blocks." A train moves in one direction from one track block to a following track block.
